Laminate Wood Flooring
Hardwood floors are always an excellent choice if you can invest money in their installation and time in their upkeep. If however your budget doesn't allow for a pure hard wood floor, consider a laminated floor. It's cheaper than oak, cherry or maple and looks close enough to the real thing. Plus, it requires very little maintenance. It's resistant to scratches, and dents, and will not fade over the years. It's a less expensive and less maintenance heavy option. Laminated flooring is sturdy in low to moderate traffic areas and are resistance to scratches, dents and stains. This ease of maintenance and low cost makes laminated wood floors a terrific option.
Choose from a varying core thickness for your laminated wood floor -- from 6 mm to 12 mm. A slimmer core thickness will ensure that your laminated floor will bend and buckle under too much traffic or weight. Choose a flooring with a higher core thickness to avoid such problems. A thicker core also ensures that your floor will not swell due to moisture. This is especially helpful if you're planning on installing your floor in kitchens or bathrooms. A thicker core can take large amounts of traffic easily, and will make a hardwood floor sound when you walk on it. If you intend to sell the house soon, an expensive hard wood flooring may not be the perfect choice for you. You don't get to enjoy the beauty of your floor for very long,. Also, the newcomers will likely tear apart the flooring -- the floors are usually the first thing to be replaced.
Hardwood flooring is undoubtedly matchless -- but it's also expensive and can be hard to care for deepening on the species of wood used. Combine the good looks of a hard wood floor with ease of maintenance and affordability that's unlike other wood floors. Laminated wood floors are the right choice if you want a versatile looking floor that's affordable.
